Democratic means direct control and participation from the citizens. Doesn't apply. In any case 'we' means everyone and that's hard to prove nor is it a particularly acceptable view. Democratic as in mindless followers of whomever runs the collective works. It would seem the 'we' group has by their own choice no voice in the matter one way or the other. After that it's individual choice measured every two and four years. My belief is the invitation to screw over will not have any trouble given the number of excuses to enable that system known as 'we.' Not at all what was meant by "We the people..."
